In the summer of 2015, a neighborhood in Baltimore was shaken by a fatal shooting that claimed the life of Cory Turman, a 37-year-old Black / African American male. On the evening of Tuesday, June 23, 2015, violence erupted in the 4300 block of Ridgewood Avenue, where Turman was shot.
The incident marked another homicide in a year that saw a significant spike in violent crime in the city. Law enforcement officials were called to the scene to investigate the deadly shooting.
However, details regarding the circumstances that led to the incident were not made publicly available. The motive for the shooting remains unclear, and authorities did not release any information about a potential suspect or suspects in the immediate aftermath of the event.
Despite the investigation into Cory Turman's murder, there have been no subsequent announcements from law enforcement regarding any arrests made in connection with the case. The shooting is listed among the city's homicides for that year with no suspects publicly identified or apprehended. The case, like many others, has left a family grieving and a community searching for answers that have not been forthcoming from official sources.
